My latest update on HS2 construction looks at the area between Thame Valley Viaduct and the Princes Risborough railway. I cycle along the new section of A418 Oxford Road and discover something new. They’ve done something about traffic safety; it’s a joke! Watch to find out.
If you have any concerns about the overbridge’s safety please get in touch with HS2 at this email address:

Very irritating 'music' Karl, please abandon use of this. 😞
Great vids as always. Is it not too far to get to Calvert, the EWR interchange and the "bat cave"?
Blue structures look like water or gas pipes.
Hopefully they'll leave the cut trees next to the '30mph' bridge in situ to part mitigate the vast ecological damage, such as the vast badger set they unlawfully buried.
They need the crash barrier 🚧 next to the road / cycle lane
Excellent work 👍 I didn't realise how vast the Solar Farm near Marsh was !
How about some footage of the new SEALR scheme ?
Hello from Finland! Never been to Britain, and will probly never use this roads, but been invested in process quite a while!
Very important for me that everybody has a chance to travel easily, safely and confortably, without needing to use a car. But still making smart infra for those who need car/truck for their travels.
But as many have said, that bike/walkway feels unsafe and not very nice.
Could have easily made bit more room to plant trees between cars and people.
When trees get bigger, not only are they more pleasing for the eye, they block the noise little bit AND make road feel more safe.
It is not 1970's anymore nor is it car-centric USA.
Thanks Karl. Is the date in the title of this video (9th Nov) an accident?
PS – frustrating that instead of safer traffic separation for cyclists (as is more common in Europe) we get painted white lines here…
Thank You Karl. Have a Merry Christmas & a Happy New Year
Always a billy-bonus when I get to see my old home of 30 years ago on one of your vids bud!
I'm slightly addicted to an american sawmill operator's YT channel, and he commonly leaves logs on the ground for a year or two before putting putting them through his mill. So I don't think we can read much into their being left there at the moment. It would be an horrendous waste of good timber if they leave them to rot forever though.
